Munich Re Markets: Derivative Performance Analyst (m/f/d)*

Munich Re Markets structures and administers bespoke reinsurance solutions for Munich Re’s life insurance clients with a focus on clients’ products in the savings, retirement and investment space. These transactions typically involve combinations of insurance risks and complex financial market risks. They have a relevant impact to our clients’ capital and risk management.

Business written thus far offers a great variety of insurance contracts together with a wide range of hedge products. The portfolio is valued using market consistent principles as well as following a variety of accounting standards (IFRS 9 being the dominant one). Among others, the team is responsible for daily monitoring and regular reporting of this business, with interfaces to risk management, reserving, controlling, as well as to risk carriers in various countries (e.g. in Switzerland, Malta and China). Reporting duties are formally recurring, but as the portfolio and external requirements are evolving constantly the content is always different.

To keep up with the growing volume and complexity, a high degree of automation and constant evolution of tools is required.
